Thomas Cole’s ‘New Studio’ Plans Revealed

There will be a party at Thomas Cole’s home in Catskill with cocktails on the lawn followed by dinner at one of several magnificent river-front homes nearby on Saturday September 11, 6pm. The event is a fundraiser, and the newly completed architectural drawings for Thomas Cole’s “New Studio” will be unveiled.

The building was designed by Cole and built in 1846, but was demolished in 1973. The original stone foundation has been unearthed, and the fascinating archaeological site will be on view.

The evening includes a viewing of the current exhibition in the Main House, “Remember the Ladies: Women of the Hudson River School.” Tickets are $225 for the cocktail and dinner, or $70 for the cocktail party only.

Thomas Cole’s Cedar Grove is an under used gem of a national historic site, so thanks for this. Secondary teachers who want to add Cole and his place to social studies or English classes can find three lessons/activities at http://www.TeachingtheHudsonValley.org.
